The Pain of Losing a Friend

-
I call him
I feel pain

I read him
I feel pain

He ignores me
I feel pain

He responds
I feel pain

He laughs
I cry

He cries
I cry

Confessions of a Distracted Student: Social Media vs. My Studies

     Me distracted at the Kampala Writes LitFest Social media addiction has hijacked my reading and writing. This is my confession, as a first-year Humanities student studying Literature, English, and Journalism. It has been done so that I can barely focus on reading a single page. My daily routine has been to spend most of my free time on social media. One and a half hours on YouTube punctuated by quick checks of Instagram, X, and Facebook. The constant beeps from notifications keep me checking my phone or laptop every other second to read the information that someone has shared or find out what is trending.

A recent study by Associate Professor Leonie Rutherford suggests that younger readers find it hard to get suitable books to read. This has led to a decline in reading. A survey ...

Is it really true that the U.S.A., India, China, Europe, Argentina, and New Zealand can fit into Africa? And that Zambia, Zimbabwe and the DRC have the potential to feed the world?

Her friend also used to work there as one of Princess Diana’s maids or something. We had met her friend at their children’s school then she invited us to her place for tea. She had to inform the guards at the gate about our coming or else they would not have let us in. St. James is still a working palace though the monarchy has not lived there in quite some time. I got to see where Prince Charles and his sons live. I hear the palace is also home to Prin...
